Connecting Threads is running a fabric design contest and I’ve got a design up for voting! You can vote now through August 31. My design is called “Flourish” and it’s in the Floral/Botanical category. Click here to vote (I’m trying to link to the specific page that my design is on, but I don’t know if it will show up in the same spot every time).

The five designers with the most votes will get to design a full line with 8-10 supporting prints. Then Connecting Threads staff will choose one of those five fabric lines to produce and sell. Thanks for voting! : )

What a great idea for a competition. Good luck for the voting 🙂 I also hadn't realised you were in Milwaukee – I always think of the Cunninghams, and think it's funny that there is a real place with that name (now I'm showing my age!)

I voted for you but I want you to know it was not because I'm partial to you (which I am), but because your fabric is spectacular and should win! I would love to see the coordinating prints you come up with to go with it. Good luck!
